Hey guys, some of you failed to state the cartridge you were loading!
I use a few more powders than I need to, because I had to take what was available, when it was available.
Some favorites:
Bullseye for 45 ACP 5.5 grains under a 200gr SWC
Unique for 45 ACP 6.8 grains (to keep max load under 7.2 - Unique meters +/-0.4gr)
Power Pistol for 38 Special 158gr swaged ZERO brand lead bullets. 5.4 grains in a 38 special rated gun, 6.0 grains in a 357 magnum rated gun.
Power Pistol for 10mm - 8 grains under a 200gr jacketed ZERO bullet
Power Pistol for 10mm - 8.5 grains under a 180gr jacketed ZERO bullet
Unique for 44 Special - 7.5 grains under anything. Skeeter Skelton's load.
HS-6 for 45LC ar 44 Magnum moderate loads. 12 grains under anything. Easy shooting and very accurate.
Unique for 44LC and 44Magnum in STRONG guns (not model 25, 29, SAA, Taurus, New Model Vaquero, etc.) 10 grains under anything for subsonic.
2400 for MAGNUM loads in STRONG 44 magnum and Ruger 45LC - 22 grains under anything for big push. 24 grains if you know exactly what you are up to and shooting a TC, FA, Bisley Blackhawk, or Super Blackhawk.
And then you can load up any old crazy thing for a Freedom Arms 83, but you might dislocate your thumb, wrist, elbow, or shoulder if you don't know how to MANAGE strong loads.
Just my 2 cents. Any one of those loads might cripple or kill you, so use them at your own peril, no warranty, no promises, and somebody else wrote all this using my nickname, sure as hell wasn't me.
